The  Business  of  Fattening  Poultry 
On  page  42(3  you  have  an  illustration 
and  article  on  the  fattening  of  young 
cockerels.  I  am  interested  in  this,  and 
would  like  more  information.  Would  you 
consider  it  profitable  to  buy  the  cockerels 
from  poultry  raisers,  put  them  in  a  fat¬ 
tening  crate,  and  force  them  to  an  ad¬ 
ditional  pound,  then  sell  to  market.  As 
I  understand  your  article,  these  cockerels 
are  put  in  crate  at  114  lbs.  With  the  in¬ 
crease  of  another  pound,  making  214  lbs., 
would  that  be  about  the  right  weight  for 
highest  market  price?  k.  p.  B. 
-Medford,  Aid. 
The  practice  of  fattening  young  chick¬ 
ens  for  broilers  has  been  developed  during 
the  past  10  or  15  years  until  it  has  grown 
to  be  an  industry  of  considerable  size. 
In  sections  of  the  country,  like  Petaluma 
and  Santa  Cruz,  in  California,  and  many 
parts  of  the  Middle  West,  these  fattening 
stations  are  centrally  located  in  districts 
where  considerable  poultry  is  raised,  and 
they  are  largely  operated  or  controlled  by 
thp  large  packing  houses  in  Chicago. 
These  packers  purchase  the  poultry  from 
the  farmers  at  very  low  prices,  and  only 
feed  it  from  10  days  to  two  weeks,  when 
it.  is  dressed  and  sold  or  put  into  cold 
storage  to  await  more  favorable  market 
conditions.  When  conducted  by  experts 
who  know  just  how  and  where  to  buy,  and 
just  how  to  feed  and  when  and  where 
to  sell,  there  is  no  question  about  the 
large  profits  which  may  be  derived  from 
the  business;  but  for  the  small  producer, 
who  must  put  his  products  on  the  general 
wholesale  markets  as  soon  as  ready,  and 
who  has  other  work  to  attend  to,  so  he 
cannot  devote  much  time  to  the  fattening 
operations,  it  would  be  very  risky  trying 
to  do  much  along  this  line. 
For  people  who  are  in  the  poultry  busi¬ 
ness  it  will  usually  pay  to  fatten  the 
broilers  before  sending  them  to  market  by 
feeding  heavily  for  10  days  or  two  weeks 
on  a  good  fattening  ration.  A  mixture 
of  50  lbs.  of  finely  ground  oat  groats,  10 
lbs.  white  middlings  and  40  lbs.  finely 
ground  eornmeal,  mixed  quite  moist  with 
skim-milk  or  buttermilk,  and  fed  twice 
a  day,  produces  very  good  results.  The 
night  feed  is  cracked  corn  and  wheat, 
equal  parts.  During  the  fattening  period 
the  birds  should  not  be  allowed  too  much 
freedom,  as  they  fatten  more  readily  in 
semi-confinement,  with  only  about  half 
the  regular  amount  of  green  feed.  Of 
course,  the  age  of  the  chicks  and  time  of 
year  both  have  to  be  taken  into  consider¬ 
ation,  and  judgment  used  accordingly. 
At  the  large  fattening  stations  the 
broilers  are  placed  in  crates  for  fattening 
and  fed  three  times  a  day  on  a  fattening 
mixture  mixed  very  thin,  so  it  will  run, 
and  no  water  is  given  while  they  are  in 
the  crates.  Broilers  which  have  been  fed 
■well  from  the  start,  and  which  are  In 
good  flesh,  do  not  seem  to  gain  very  rap¬ 
idly  in  crates,  but  if  good  and  strong,  al¬ 
though  rather  thin  in  flesh,  they  fatten 
up  very  quickly  under  expert  care  and 
feeding.  Sanitary  conditions  and  sys¬ 
tematic  attention  to  details  appear  to  be 
just  as  important  as  proper  rations.  The 
size  of  chicks  to  use  for  best  results  varies 
with  your  market  and  the  season  of  the 
year.  '  Early  in  the  Spring  the  market 
price  is  high,  and  it  pays  to  get  them  on 
the  market  as  soon  as  possible.  We  often 
find  it  more  profitable  to  sell  them  as 
squab  broilers  at  three-quarters  of  a 
pound  each,  alive,  but  as  the  season  ad¬ 
vances  the  market  usually  reqires  fancy 
stock  to  weigh  about  3  lbs.  per  pair, 
dressed.  Heavier  broilers  are  only  re¬ 
quired  for  special  orders,  and  the.  de¬ 
mand  for  them  is  therefore  very  light.

Poor  Hatch 
We  placed  425  eggs  in  an  incubator  and 
44  tested  out,  and  we  only  had  80  chicks 
that  hatched.  They  did  not  seem  to  have 
absorbed  quite  all  of  the  volk,  and  seemed 
to  be  ruptured.  The  machine  seemed  to 
work  well  at  all  times.  There  were  chicks 
in  all  the  eggs ;  some  died  in  their  shells, 
and  some  seemed  unable  to  liberate  them¬ 
selves.  The  man  we  bought  eggs  from 
had  2,000  chicks  out  of  2,900  eggs ;  this 
hatch  was  in  March.  Could  the  trouble 
have  been  caused  by  too  much  cooling,  or 
could  it  have  been  the  fault  of  the  eggs? 
What  would  too  much  moisture  do  to  a 
hatch?  I  have  run  other  incubators  with 
success,  and  cannot  understand  what  the 
trouble  was  with  this  one.  The  hatch 
lasted  from  the  20tli  to  the  22d  day,  and 
there  were  chickens  trying  to  get  out, 
but  not  able,  when  we  opened  it  up. 
Schoharie.  N.  Y.  c.  K.  s. 
A  hatch  of  2,000  chicks  from  2,900  eggs 
in  March  was  good  indeed,  and  would 
not  indicate  anything  wrong  with  the 
eggs.  A  delayed  hatch,  lasting  into  the 
22d  day,  would  indicate  that  the  machine 
had  been  run  at  too  low  a  temperature ; 
for  this,  the  operator  or  the  thermometer 
used  might  have  been  at  fault.  The  ther- 
mdmeter  should  be  tested  by  holding  it  in 
a  pup  of  warm  water  by  :he  side  of  a 
physician’s  thermometer  and  noting 
whether  the  two  registered  alike  or  not. 
It  should  be  remembered,  too,  that  a 
thermometer  suspended  above  the  eggs 
does  not  give  the  exact  temperature  of 
the  eggs,  being  higher,  so  that  the  - tem¬ 
perature  recommended,  by  the-  makers-  of 
the  machine  should  be  recorded  by  the 
kind  of  thermometer,  standing  or  sus¬ 
pended,  that  they  supply  with  it.  Over¬ 
much  cooling  would  delay  a  hatch ;  in 
fact,  cooling  at  all  is  not  uoav  considered 
necessary.  Eggs  should  be  turned  twice 
daily,  but  not  cooled  longer  than  is  un¬ 
avoidable  in  this  process.  1  do  not  know 
that  it  is  possible  to  supply  too  much 
moisture  to  hatching  eggs,  unless  the  at¬ 
tempt  to  supply  moisture  interferes  with 
temperature  regulation.  Sufficient  moist 
ture  is  ordinarily  supplied  by  the  means 
usually  taken  for  that  purpose.  M.  b.  p.
